Sunshiny Pillow

Look what my Let it go - let it grow project from this post has grown into – a finished pillow.Hand quilting the rectangular piece of linen took about one week of evenings listening to the TV. I did not have the heart to cut any of it off, so the upper and bottom parts of the quilted rectangle is on the back of the pillow.A detail; the colour did not photograph well, maybe it’s too brightBrightening up our sofaI loved hand quilting this fabric so much, that I have prepared two more pieces. Just letting go was not that hard after all, so one of them is already growing.

so who am I?

My name is Nina Lise and I live in Norway where I share my life with my (incredible patient) husband, our daughter, two grandboys 9 and 5 (centre of the universe and masters of our house once a week and every other weekend), and an ever growing stash of fabric (lovingly referred to as “crap” by husband).
I have been quilting for 18 years, and it is consuming my time, my budget and large parts of both my brain and our house (hence the patient husband). I am pretty much a design-as-you-make-it-up quilter and enjoy the process even more than the finished project. I love playing with scraps of fabric and turning them into small, funny quilts. My first book was published in March 2012 and I also design patterns and teach classes.
